In mathematics, "skew" refers to a situation where two lines or planes do not intersect and are not parallel. In a three-dimensional space, skew lines are non-coplanar, meaning they exist in different planes and do not meet at any point. The concept is important in geometry and can also apply in statistics, where a distribution is said to be skewed if it is not symmetric, indicating that it has a longer tail on one side.

What does skew mean in math terms?
Two lines that lie on different planes but are not parallel.
What does the math matical word skew mean?
It means to poke a little hole in something. That's why something that goes all the way through is a "skewer" because it's skewer than a skew.
What is the definition of skewed distribution?
Probability distribution in which an unequal number of observations lie below (negative skew) or above (positive skew) the mean.
What is a skew plane?
There is no such thing as a skew plane - in isolation. It can only be skew with reference to something else.
What is the definition of the term skew lines?
Skew lines are a term for lines in geometry. They mean two lines that are not parallel, but do not intersect either. It is only possible in three dimensions and up.

How is having a median in math a advantage?
helps show you the skew of data.
What Does Skew Mean Mathematically?
To turn or place at an angle.
What is the definition of skewed distribution?
Probability distribution in which an unequal number of observations lie below (negative skew) or above (positive skew) the mean.
Can segments and rays be skew lines if they lie in skew lines?
They can be, and are, "skew". If they are not lines, they cannot be "skew lines".
When is the median more useful than the mean?
When the distribution has outliers. They will skew the mean but will not affect the median.

Do lines that skew intersect?
No. Skew lines do not intersect
What do you mean when you say a histogram is skewed to the right?
A right or positive skew means the data in the histogram will tail out to the right. See the related link figure 15.6 and it shows a right skew.
